Q.C.

Also known as K.C.

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

Cards are dealt to six piles of four cards each. Tableau piles are built down by same suit. Only single cards can be moved between tableau piles. Empty spaces are filled immediately from the waste pile, but if the stock is empty, any card can fill an empty tableau pile.

You can deal cards from the stock one at a time, and move cards to the tableau and foundations. Only one redeal is allowed.

The foundations are built up by same suit from ace to king. The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
